Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 331 Advancement
On the track and field, there are people everywhere.

Naruse wandered aimlessly, looking for members of Class A among the contestants in various events.

"There is a second-grade competition here." Morimi who had been following beside him suddenly said.

He stopped and followed her to the bunker to watch the women's long jump event in progress.

"Which one is from Class A?"

"..."

Mori Jian glanced at him, "That short-haired girl who is queuing."

Naruse looked over and recognized it quickly, but he didn't have much impression.

The two stood by the sandpit for a while, until the girl in class A made a long jump before turning around and leaving.

"With that distance, can I make it to the finals?"

"It jumps farther than me anyway."

After turning around casually, the two came to the vicinity of the gymnasium again, and simply went in.

The billiard room is on the second floor of the gymnasium. When Naruse and Mori saw it, the last round of the game had just ended.

Ogasawara stood beside him, arms crossed, staring blankly at the table.

"Losing?" Senjian walked over quickly.

"..."

Ogasawara came back to his senses and looked at her.

"It's not my turn yet... Why does it feel like Yiye is looking forward to my loss."

"No, it's better to say that I'm looking forward to Xing's performance."

"I also watched Yiye's game on it just now, it's really good, I played back and forth with the main player of the badminton club."

"Isn't it weird?"

"No."

The two looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

"So nervous."

"It's okay, it will be over soon."

Naruse, who was standing aside, looked left and right, and sure enough, he saw Kobayashi in the corner, who also beckoned to him.

"I'll go over there."

"Ah?" Sen Jian was taken aback, then quickly nodded, "En."

Ogasawara rolled his eyes, and his eyes wandered over her and Naruse's faces.

The one standing with Kobayashi was also a former C class boy, Naruse walked over, and the three of them chatted together in the corner.

"Narase also signed up for basketball?"

"You can see the clothes on me."

"You can't take Xiaolin with you."

"You guy..."

On the other side, Morimi asked Ogasawara: "Who is Xing's opponent?"

"It's also from Class D...it seems to be Yuzuki Onishi."

"Hey, she's my middle school classmate."

"Really? Yiye, go and tell her, and be gentle with me later."

"I remember she wasn't very good at sports either..."

Mori Jian searched in the billiard room, and soon saw the middle school classmate standing on the other side.

"I'm going to say hello."

"please!"

She smiled and walked over there, "Don't expect too much."

In the corner, Naruse was chatting with Kobayashi when he suddenly saw Morimi walking towards a strange girl and started chatting with her.

"Do you know anyone..."

"Huh? What did Naruse say?"

"No, nothing."

While speaking, a new round of competition started. Class C of the second year played against Class F of the second year. The two girls participating in the competition were both unfamiliar faces.

Naruse looked at it for a while, a little surprised.

"It seems that they are not very good at fighting..."

"Naruse is too polite, it's not possible at all. Tsuko has a billiards club, but it's mostly boys, and there are not many girls who can play billiards... But I heard that in the third grade, there are A senior from China, with a racket in one hand, knocked down the entire billiard club."

"awesome."

There is really not much to watch in a game where the serve is not smooth.

Naruse focused most of his attention on Kobayashi's bragging about that senior, and occasionally glanced at Morimi who was together with Ogasawara.

After waiting for too long, it was finally the turn of Class A of the second year to face Class D of the second year.

Holding the racket, Ogasawara entered the court tremblingly.

In the first round, the second-year class D players will serve.

pat.

The ping pong ball was ejected with the racket and hit the net neatly.

"One point for class A in the second year."

"..."

Sen Jian raised his eyebrows.

Ogasawara had already surpassed her in points without doing anything...

In the second round, the second-year class D players served.

The ping-pong ball flicked on the table and finally passed the net. Ogasawara immediately swung his racket back.

pat!

The opponent was in a hurry and failed to catch the ball.

"One point for class A in the second year."

Naruse turned to look at Kobayashi, "Ogasawara might be able to enter the next round."

He shook his head, "It's hard to say."

In the next two rounds, Ogasawara served the ball, but either missed the net or flew directly off the table, and the two-point advantage disappeared in an instant.

Naruse opened his mouth and stopped talking.

A few minutes later, while he and Kobayashi were scratching their heads, the round ended with a final score of 12:10.

The one who scored [-] points was the ecstatic Ogasawara.

"Ah, Yiye, I've advanced!"

What luck...

Morimi sighed, but smiled quickly.

"Congratulations."

Ogasawara successfully advanced, and the next round of competition will have to wait until noon, so the two went back to the classroom together.

Naruse and Kobayashi were staying in the gymnasium, standing on the high platform on the second floor, watching the basketball game going on below.

"The first graders also played very fiercely."

"Well, they all look quite experienced."

When it's not my turn to compete, I'm still very idle.

The competition below continued round after round, until it was almost noon before Naruse returned to the classroom.

Ogasawara sat in his seat, chatting with Morimi.

"fine."

Seeing that she was about to stand up and give up her seat, Naruse waved his hand, turned around and left again.

Seeing him walking in the direction of Class C, Morimi looked away again and found that Ogasawara was staring at him.

"Am I in the way?"

"Ah."

"It's too much!"

After all, almost two months have passed, and Ogasawara already knew that Shangzi was the real girlfriend he was dating now.

"I said, Yiye..."

"Ah."

"Are you going to keep going like this?"

"What did you say……"

Seeing the expression on his friend's face, Morimi quickly understood what she meant.

"What did you say suddenly?"

"I'm worried about you." Ogasawara also looked at her, and said bluntly, "If this continues, Yiye will get hurt sooner or later."

Sen Jian pursed his lower lip, "I understand."

"No, if Yiye really understood, she would have given up a long time ago."

"..."

She was silent for a while.

She understands.

She clearly understood that she was walking into the abyss step by step.

"When I get tired of playing, I will let him go."

"..."

Ogasawara smiled, but his brows were still furrowed.

But she also understands that if her friend chooses to joke at this time, it means that she doesn't want to talk about it.

She stopped talking, but still couldn't help saying: "Don't cry then."

"I didn't cry when I was beaten up on the court today."

"That's considered a violent beating... Can he be as gentle as the head of the badminton club?"

"No, on the contrary, he wished he had a knife in every sentence."

Both of them laughed, and tacitly did not talk further on this topic.

"I still think it's better to lose just now, so as not to have to go there at noon and lose face."

"No, no, even if you advance in this way, it's better than not advancing."

"There is something in your words."

"No oh~"

After chatting for a while, Naruse returned to Class A, this time he did not refuse Ogasawara's abdication because it was already lunch time.

Naoko and Haixing also followed, and after a while, Takikawa Hikari came to Class A with a bento.

"I had a little early lunch today."

"I'm going to play soon, and I can't go to the game hungry."

"Then don't eat too much, this is my experience."

"I know."

Ogasawara returned to his seat and looked back at the five people in the corner.

Because we grew up together, do we have to stay together even when we eat...

Seemingly aware of her gaze, Sen looked over and asked with inquiring eyes.

Ogasawara shook his head and turned away.

"What's wrong?" Noticing her gaze, Hai Xing asked.

"fine."

Morimi also shook her head, and looked at her bento box again.

"Eat less, too. Isn't there a competition later?"

"Uh-huh."
